Mirafiori Sud is another ventricle of the industrial heart of
Turin.
Let’s start from via Plava 30. Just beyond the entrance
gate of the Fiat plant, we can find the sculpture Le due
forze. It was created at the end of the 1970s by Turin
goldsmith and sculptor Bruno Martinazzi. The sculpture
represents two huge fists made out of stone. The work was
commissioned by Giovanni Agnelli and was also defined by
Sergio Marchionne as a symbol of enterprises, «a synthesis
of forces that converge towards the same goal».
